Real estate mogul Kurt Rappaport has revealed himself as the mystery buyer who purchased a 1909-11 T206 Honus Wagner card for $3.7 million recently.
According to TMZ Sports, Rappaport bought the card through Heritage Auctions and helped make it the second-most expensive baseball card of all time, behind a 1/1 autographed Mike Trout rookie, which sold for $3.9 million in August.
Rappaport called the Wagner card the "holy grail" and "the rarest and most desired of all sports cards."
PSA graded Rappaport's Wagner card a 3, which translates to "very good condition." Rappaport explained that of the 50 to 60 Wagner T206 cards known to exist, only four have earned a higher grade.

Why would a Mike Trout card be worth so much?

get it but don't agree with it being the most valuable card in baseball. If given a choice between the two, wouldn't you rather have the Honus T206?


No question. I’m 26 and that card was legendary to us kids in the 2000s.

The point was that it was legendary as recently as then. That it’s still relevant. At least within 20 years

Honus would be a great name for a travel ball kid.
